"In 2002, we were invited to perform with George Cleve at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco. The piece was the Mozart Requiem, and it was done on September 11, in honor of the one year anniversary. The cathedral was full, and at the end, there was absolute silence for several minutes. I got goose bumps, as it was so meaningful to the audience. Then they burst into applause which lasted for some time. This is what music can do."
